Aggiungi al carrelloCondizione: Good. Early Edition. 8vo. pp iv, 5-35. A popular moralistic pseudo-oriental tale, first published in England in 1762, in which Langhorne's "chief delight is to moralize and philosophize in a gentle and leisurely fashion" and which "advances slowly because frequently broken by generalizations, by descriptions of place…s like the 'frowning' ruins of Persepolis and emotions aroused thereby, and also by digressions on the state of literature and manners in England . On the whole, although the story is stiff, tedious, and over-moralistic, it has an attractive kind of purity and sweetness like the fragrance from an old-fashioned garden." - Conant, The Oriental Tale in England in the Eighteenth Century, pp. 99-100 Disbound (i.e. lacking covers) but otherwise in decent sound condition with clean text. Suitable for rebinding or reading and reference.
